Can you possibly provide an example of what you are referring to? As far as .first-child and .last-child I was a bit leary because of cross-browser issues. What browsers will not display those elements correctly?

.first-child and .last-child refer to class names in this case. Specifically class="first-child" and class="last-child" (not the psuedo-selectors, which I use to replace said properties due to IE 6 not understanding them).

As for floating the list items, just float them to the left, but give them a height so you can apply the background images to them, then use some left padding to give you enough space to show the images. (And sorry, I can't provide an example right now, I'm about to log off for the day so I can get a lot of housework done, you know, mopping floors, cleaning the bathroom, stuff like that.)

This is definitely getting somewhere, but it is still a bit off. The bullet does not line up in the center for any of the browsers... it appears to be a few pixels off to the left. Is there anyway around this?
